I love trying new coffee shops with friends. We chose Cafe Ollama this week and could not have been happier with our choice. It is smaller than I realized, but also very cozy. They have a small menu but all were explained to us by the young girl working. I saw they had a flight through Yelp pictures but was not on the menu so we asked. It was available and came with a hot and cold cafe ollama brew - plus you pick two. A few danish to pick from but they were tasty. My favorite was the Tia de Rosa - however I was not a fan of the dried flowers on top as they were not edible. We will be back and also recommend this place.

I love this place, it is so cute and unique! I walked in and felt like I was transported into a cafe in Central America! It also has this feel like you're in someone's living room. It might actually be- I am not sure! My friend and I got the Cafe de Olla and it was delicious!!! I'm super picky about drinks and this was pure perfection! The young lady working was nice as can be as well. A couple complaints, though it still deserves 5 starts, it was very very hot in there and I was sweating. Also, it seems as though in the back is someone's home or another business because after I saw the young lady leave it was a ghost town around 10:30 or so. I felt like I had to do customer service when a few people walked in and asked if anyone is working. They need maybe a bell to ring for service? Or completely close if no one is working? I'll be back for sure when it's not quite as hot out.

I love Cafe Ollama! I've never had a drink I didn't like here, and the menu has something for everyone. I personally love the Cafe de Olla...it's the perfect iced drink for a warm KC day!! The flavors are spot on and the whipped topping is the perfect touch. They also offer coffee flights at select times throughout the week! Service is always very friendly and the shop has lots of room to sit and chat with friends or get some work done. You won't regret stopping by.

Come for the coffee. Stay for the culture. Visited Ollama located on the western edge of the crossroads. A charming cafe full of character and offering traditional Mexican coffee. The featured drink & most popular is the café de olla. Delicious style of coffee native to rural Mexico that's slowly brewed with canela, piloncillo and spices. Topped with salted sweet foam and a little cookie. Super tasty! Also offering coffee flights & Mexican pastries. Fast and friendly service Wonderful views and a sweet little patio area to feel like you're a part of the hustle and bustle of downtown. Everything in Cafe Ollama pays homage to their Mexican roots and culture. I can't wait to go back!

This is a cute little coffee shop in the crossroads. Making some aweome coffee and has everything you need. They sell some pastries but if you are just looking for coffee then this is the place to be.

I first learned about this coffee shop back in December, and I've already been there twice in the past month. They have such u unique flavors! The coffee shop sits in the crossroads right off Southwest Blvd and I-35. There is plenty of street parking in front and on the block. The space is in a historic building and has artwork on the walls. When I first went, I honestly wanted to try a little bit of everything because it's so unique. The flight is the way to go! The staff gave suggestions and even let me sample one. Two of my favorites had to be the La Tia Rosa a mazapán latte with peanut based candy steamed with oat milk. The second time I ordered the Abuelita Lupe with chocolate abuelita with steamed milk topped with foam.

This small coffee shop feels so homey-like. Every time I visit, the staff are extremely kind and helpful. The drinks are unique in flavor and I often see them post new seasonal drinks which is a plus! I always recommend this place for a Mexican inspired cafe. Will continue coming to support this small business.

There are many selections from which to choose, and NONE will disappoint. Must try a flight; the horchata was amazing! Intimate, cozy coffee shop feel while being unique and a far cry from Starbucks! The counter service was adequate but nothing above and beyond, as they didn't check in during our hour long sit. Will absolutely go back to get some delicious, unique coffee again!!

One of my favorite coffee spots! The most authentic Mexican coffee in town. Love to support this family owned local business, the owner and staff are so nice! The cold brew is amazing, and grab some Mexican pastries there too, such a treat!

Went to Ollama for a work event. Our team planned a morning of coffee and networking plus we got to hear from Cafe Ollama founder Leslie. I loved how much she talked about prioritizing this space being somewhere that you can truly connect with people. I don't drink coffee but they recommended a strawberry matcha drink that wasn't on the menu. I will definitely be back soon for more!
